In low elevations and cold temperatures, the air has more oxygen. In higher elevations and higher temperatures, the air is less dense. Carburetors are calibrated for an altitude of 0-3000 ft. (0-900 meters) and ambient temperatures between +40 and +80 F (+5 to +26 C). Carburetors must be re-calibrated if operated outside the production temperature and/or altitude range. The main jet installed in production is not correct for all altitudes and/or temperatures. In addition, air screw / pilot screw adjustments may be required to suit operating conditions. CAUTION: A main jet that is too small will cause a lean operating condition and may cause serious engine damage. Select the correct main jet carefully for elevation and temperature according to the charts in the General/ Specifications Chapter, or in the Owner’s Safety and Maintenance Manual for each particular model. MAIN JET SELECTION IMPORTANT: The following guidelines must be followed when establishing a main jet setting: 1. 2. 3. 4. Select the lowest anticipated temperature at which the machine will be operated. Determine the lowest approximate altitude at which the machine will be operated. Select the correct main jet from the chart. Clutching changes may also be required for changes in elevation. Refer to clutching charts in General / Specifications Chapter 1 for recommendations. WARNING Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Always stop the engine and refuel outdoors or in a well ventilated area. Do not overfill the tank. Do not fill the tank neck. Never start the engine or let it run in an enclosed area. Gasoline powered engine exhaust fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of consciousness and death in a short time. Never drain the float bowl when the engine is hot. Severe burns may result. Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area where refueling is performed or where gasoline is stored. If you get gasoline in your eyes or if you should swallow gasoline, see your doctor immediately. If you spill gasoline on your skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with soap and water and change clothing. 4.1 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY Forward Fuel tank mounted valve 4.2 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION FUEL FLOW DIAGRAM Fuel Tank Vent Fuel Tank Fitting Screens L Fuel Pump Filter Fuel Valve Carburetor Vent Carburetor Engine L Located Above Oil Tank 4.3 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION MIKUNI JET PART NUMBERS Main Jet Part Numbers Mikuni BST Carburetor Jet Number 112.5 115 117.5 120 122.5 125 127.5 130 132.5 135 137.5 140 142.5 145 147.5 150 152.5 155 157.5 160 162.5 165 167.5 170 Part Number 3130554 3130555 3130556 3130557 3130558 3130559 3130560 3130561 3130562 3130563 3130564 3130527 3130566 3130567 3130568 3130569 3130570 3130571 3130572 3131141 3131142 3131143 3131144 3131145 Pilot Jet Part Numbers Mikuni BST Carburetor Jet Number 40.0 42.5 4.4 Part Number 3130624 3130526 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION CV CARBURETOR SYSTEM FUNCTION Carburetor Component Function System Main Components Main Function Main Affect Float System (Fuel Level Control) Inlet Pipe, Needle and Seat, Float, Float Pin Maintains specified fuel level in float chamber (carburetor float bowl) All systems All throttle ranges Venting Vent Passages in Carburetor, Vent lines (2) into (1) to frame Supplies atmospheric pressure to fuel in float chamber All systems All throttle ranges Starter (Choke/Enrichment) Choke Lever, Cable, Choke Supplies additional fuel air Plunger, Return Spring, Carb mixture necessary for cold Passages (Starter Jet, Starter starting Bleed Pipe) All throttle ranges Greatest effect at low throttle settings and idle Pilot (Idle System) Pilot Jet/Passageways, PilotMixture Screw with Spring Washer and Sealing O-Ring, Bypass Ports (Behind Throttle Plate), Pilot Air Jet, Pilot Outlet, Throttle Plate Primarily supplies fuel at idle and low throttle settings Mainly idle to 1/4 throttle Minimal effect after 1/2 throttle Main System Main Jet, Main Air Jet, Main Air Passage, Needle Jet, Jet Needle, Vacuum Slide, Throttle Plate Supplies fuel at mid-range and high throttle settings. 1/4 to full throttle VENT SYSTEMS - CV CARBURETOR The carburetor float bowl vent lines supply atmospheric pressure to the fuel in the float bowl. The lines must be free of kinks and restrictions and be properly routed to allow fuel to flow in the proper amount and to prevent contaminants from entering the carburetor. To frame Vent lines 4.5 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION MIKUNI CV CARB OPERATION The constant velocity carburetor incorporates a mechanically operated throttle plate and a vacuum controlled slide valve (vacuum slide). The venturi cross-sectional area in the carburetor bore is increased or decreased automatically by the vacuum slide, which moves according to the amount of negative pressure (less than atmospheric) present in the venturi. A diaphragm attached to the top of the vacuum slide is sealed to the slide and to the carburetor body forming two chambers. The chamber above the diaphragm is connected to the venturi area by a drilled orifice in the center of the vacuum slide. The chamber below the diaphragm is vented to atmospheric pressure by a passage on the air box side of the carburetor. A spring, installed in the center of the vacuum slide, dampens the slide movement and assists the return of the slide. When the throttle plate is opened and engine speed begins to increase, the pressure in the venturi (and therefore in the chamber above the diaphragm) becomes significantly lower than atmospheric. Atmospheric pressure in the chamber below the diaphragm forces the diaphragm upward, raising the slide against spring pressure. When the pressure above and below the diaphragm are nearly equal, the slide moves downward under spring pressure. Raising or lowering the slide increases or decreases the cross sectional area in the venturi, and therefore the air velocity in the venturi is kept relatively constant. This provides improved fuel atomization and optimum fuel/air ratio.

The fuel from float chamber (2) is metered by pilot jet (3) where it mixes with air coming in through pilot air jet (4). The mixture then goes up through pilot passage to pilot screw (5). A part of the mixture is discharged into the main bore out of bypass ports (6). The remainder is then metered by pilot screw and discharged into the main bore through pilot outlet (7). 4 1 6 7 5 2 3 STARTER SYSTEM (CHOKE OR ENRICHMENT) When the choke cable (1) is activated, the starter plunger (5) is lifted off the seat. Fuel is drawn into the starter circuit from the float chamber (2) through the starter jet (3). Starter jet meters this fuel, which then flows into starter pipe (4) and mixes with the air (7) coming from the float chamber. The mixture, rich in fuel content, reaches starter plunger and mixes again with the air coming through a passage (8) extending from underneath the diaphragm. The rich fuel/air mixture for starting is discharged through starter outlet (6) in the the main bore. 8 5 1 6 7 4 2 3 4.7 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION FLOAT SYSTEM Fuel enters the float chamber (3) by means of the inlet pipe and passage, through a screen on the back of the inlet needle seat (4), and around the inlet needle (2). As the fuel fills the float chamber, the float (1) rises and forces the inlet needle against the seat, shutting off the orifice in the seat. When fuel level is up in float chamber, floats are up and needle valve remains pushed up against valve seat. Under this condition, no fuel enters the float chamber. As the fuel level falls, floats go down and needle valve unseats itself to admit fuel into the chamber. In this manner, the needle valve admits and shuts off fuel alternately to maintain a practically constant fuel level inside the float chamber. Inlet Pipe 1 3 4 2 MAIN SYSTEM As throttle valve (1) is opened, engine speed rises, and this increases negative pressure in the venturi. Consequently the vacuum slide (2) moves upward. The fuel in float chamber (3) is metered by main jet (4), and the metered fuel enters needle jet (5), in which it mixes with the air admitted through main air jet (6) to form an emulsion. The emulsified fuel then passes through the clearance between needle jet (5) and jet needle (7), and is discharged into the venturi (A). Mixture proportioning is accomplished in needle jet (5); the clearance through which the emulsified fuel must flow is determined ultimately by throttle position and vacuum slide height. 2 1 7 6 A 3 5 4 4.8 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION BST 34 CARBURETOR EXPLODED VIEW 1.

Remove carburetor diaphragm chamber cover with a ratchet style screwdriver. DO NOT use an impact driver to remove the screws or carburetor may be permanently damaged. 2. Use a small spring loaded center punch to remove pressed float pin. NOTE:Set the center punch to the softest setting (if adjustable) to avoid damage to float pin tower. 3. Remove inlet needle seat retaining screw along with plate, and carefully remove needle seat. NOTE: Do not use a pliers to remove the seat or permanent damage may occur. 4.10 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION CARBURETOR DISASSEMBLY - MIKUNI CV, CONT. 4. Do not misplace the pilot mixture screw, spring, flat washer, or O-Ring. If anti-tamper plug is installed in pilot screw cavity, refer to Maintenance chapter 2 for removal procedure. O-Ring Washer Spring Pilot Screw 5. NOTE: The starter jet is not removeable. Starter Jet CARBURETOR CLEANING 1. Thoroughly clean the carburetor body, jets, and all passages with carburetor cleaner or electrical contact cleaner. WARNING Protect eyes from contact with cleaner. If you get cleaner in your eyes or if you swallow cleaner, see your doctor immediately. Some carburetor cleaners are extremely caustic and extended periods of soaking can loosen the adhesive sealer on the passage drill-way plugs. Do not soak rubber or plastic components (such as the vacuum slide diaphragm, needle seat screen, or O-Rings in caustic cleaning solutions. Irreparable damage may occur. Do not use agitator type carburetor cleaning equipment. Rubber parts must be cleaned with mild detergent and hot water only. 2. If the carburetor is extremely dirty or contaminated with fuel residue and varnish, soak for short periods only in carburetor cleaner, and rinse in hot water. 3. Replace the jets if they are extremely dirty or have a buildup of fuel residue or bacterial growth. Even a small amount of residue will reduce the flow characteristics of the jet. 4. Verify all passages and jets are unobstructed by spraying electrical contact cleaner through the passages. CAUTION: Do not use wire or welding tip cleaners on the jets as the orifice size may be altered. 5. Use low pressure air to dry carburetor body and all components. 4.11 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION CARBURETOR INSPECTION 1. Inspect jet needle and needle jet for wear. Look for discoloration, shiny spots, or and area that looks different than the rest of the needle. The middle to upper portion of the needle where it contacts the needle jet is the most likely wear point. If jet needle shows signs of wear replace both needle and needle jet to prevent a rich condition. Inspect this area 2. Inspect the inlet needle tapered surface for any sign of wear or damage. Be sure the spring loaded pin is free moving and returns freely when pushed. The inlet needle and seat should be pressure tested after assembly. Good Condition Worn, Deposits Seat Wear areas Needle 4.12 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION CARBURETOR ASSEMBLY 1. Inspect the diaphragm (A) for holes, deterioration, or damage. Make sure the diaphragm is pliable but not swollen. The diaphragm should fit properly in the carburetor body. Replace diaphragm assembly if diaphragm is damaged. 2. Replace parts in proper order. The spring seat washer (B) is stepped and must be placed on TOP of “E” Clip (C). Spacer washer (D) must be installed below the E-Clip. Refer to parts manual for more information. 3. Be sure the tab (E) on outer edge of diaphragm is positioned properly in the carburetor body. B D E C A 4. Install the pilot mixture screw, spring, washer, and O-ring as an assembly. Lubricate the O-Ring with oil or light grease before installation. CAUTION: Do not damage the O-ring during installation. Turn the screw in until it lightly contacts the seat. Back out the specified number of turns. NOTE: The final pilot (idle) mixture must be adjusted with the engine running. Refer to Page 2.13. Pilot Mixture Screw Base Setting (Turns Out) Refer to General / Specifications Chapter 1 Pilot Screw 4.13 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION FLOAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT 1. Place the carburetor on a level surface as shown at right to remove weight from float arm. In this position, the float tongue will rest lightly on the inlet needle valve pin without compressing the spring. 2. Measure the height from the float bowl mating surface to the top of step in float as shown. Both sides of float should be parallel to each other. The measurement should be made at the mid-point on the top of the float using float adjustment tool (PN 2872314) or a vernier caliper. When measuring the height be sure the inlet needle valve spring is not compressed. Float Height: Std: BST 34 14.7mm (.58) 1 mm 3. If adjustment is necessary, bend the tongue slightly. Be sure float arms are even on left and right side. Float arms even Bend to adjust float 4.14 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION NEEDLE AND SEAT LEAKAGE TEST 1. Install the float bowl. Invert the carburetor and install a Mity-Vac (PN 2870975) to the fuel inlet fitting. Apply 5 PSI pressure to inlet fitting. The needle and seat should hold pressure indefinitely. If not, inspect needle and seat and seat O-ring. Mity Vac PN 2870975 FUEL LEVEL A fuel level test can be performed on some models if the drain hose fitting is accessible. Be sure to re-attach the bowl drain hose after performing the test. A fuel level test allows you to observe the height of the fuel in the float bowl without removing the carburetor. The fuel level can be observed with the engine either running or shut off, however, engine must run briefly to allow fuel level to stabilize.. 1. Attach a clear line to drain fitting. Be sure line fits tightly on fitting. Position hose along side of carburetor as shown. 2. Open bowl drain screw by turning counterclockwise approximately two turns. Start and run engine for 3 to 5 seconds to allow fuel level to stabilize in the line. If level is out of specification, remove carburetor and inspect inlet needle and seat, float height, passages, etc. 1.5 mm .060 Bowl Mating Surface 3. If a line was removed to perform this procedure, it must be replaced. 4.15 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION FUEL PUMP The Polaris 6x6 is equipped with a pressure regulated fuel pump (about 1-3 PSI). The pump is located under the headlight cover at the front of the machine. Refer to illustration on following page for fuel pump component identification. To test the fuel pump: 1. Turn fuel off. 2. Disconnect impulse line from pump. 3. Connect Mity-Vac (PN 2870975) to the impulse line fitting on the pump. 4. Apply 5 inches (Hg) vacuum to the pump fitting. The diaphragm should hold vacuum indefinitely. If fuel is present in the impulse line or vacuum chamber of the pump, the diaphragm is ruptured and the pump diaphragms must be replaced. FUEL PUMP DISASSEMBLY 1. 2. 3. 4. Refer to illustration on following. Remove the screws from the pump diaphragm cover. Note the location of the two longer screws. Remove the diaphragm cover gasket, diaphragm, and valve body gasket. Remove the outlet check valve cover, diaphragm, and gasket. FUEL PUMP INSPECTION/ASSEMBLY 1. Inspect inlet and outlet check valves for cracks, warpage or damage. Inspect the diaphragms for cracks, holes or swelling. 2. To clean the valves or pump body, remove the set screw and washer. Remove the valve and wash with soap and water. Carburetor cleaner may be used to clean the pump body when the check valves are removed. CAUTION: Some carburetor cleaners are very caustic and should not be used to clean the non-metal parts of the fuel pump. 3. Check the sealing surfaces of the pump body and covers. Carefully remove all traces of old gasket and check the surfaces for damage. Replace diaphragms and gaskets as a set. 4. Reassemble the pump in the reverse order of disassembly. Tighten all screws evenly. 4.16 FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION FUEL PUMP EXPLODED VIEW 4 5 1. Fuel Pump Assembly 2. Diaphragm, Gasket Set 3. Screw and Washer Assembly 4. Screw and Washer Assembly 5.
